I've had enough systems that where that 0.01% instability was such an issue that just running it overnight isn't enough in my opinion. If it can pass that then the root cause is someplace else.

Certain 2 Processors have an overclocking feature. The asus z10pe-d8 ws and z10pe-d16 ws being amoung those boards. Supermicro has what is calls a hyper-speed setting which is indirect control OCing.
I don't consider those server boards, and further, they don't accept non-Xeon CPUs unless I'm mistaken.
Supermicro is a blacklisted vendor at many institutions for good reason.
